DELL-6000H Compatible 7200mAh Lithium Battery Pack for Dell Laptops (Black)

Pros: Compatible with Dell e1705. Battery discharge time is about the same as the original factory battery.

Cons: The battery charge meter on the bottom of the battery, which on the original factory battery lights up to show the state of charge, is only printed on in this clone. I guess you could expect this as it is expensive to provide and not particularly useful. Anyway it is not a big deal.

Other: A good price, works fine.

Pros: Wow. The price is the greatest, at basically one third of the price of a DELL replacement. Everything on it is exacly the same other than the Dell logo. The light up battery meter works flawlessly. My DELL INSPIRON 9200 accepted it on the first go, holds on average a 2 hour 15 minute charge, but I've had nearly 4 hours out of it when doing light work, or just playing low music with the screen off.

Cons: Arrived with about 20% charge, must have been sitting for a long time. It never seems to hold charge at 100%. Sometimes it does, but the light for charging flashes on for a second, once every 10 seconds or so, but hey, it still works fine.

Other: Regardless of any of the Cons, being able to save $100 on the battery outweighs them by a big margin. If it lasts me more than 3 years than it was definately worth it.
